Too lazy to be a writer – Too egotistical to be quiet

December 2013 Wrap-Up

December has been a month of catching up and looking ahead. I managed to get through a few review copies and library books I had lying around, before moving on to the next big project, more J-Lit for my January in January event 🙂 Still, before we get onto 2014, let’s close off 2013 first…

I reviewed some great books to round off the year, several of which may have taken out the prize in a weaker month. Special mentions go to Álvaro Colomer, Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz and Andreï Makine; however, Blinding was simply too good to ignore, a worthy recipient of the final book of the month award for 2013 🙂

*****That’s it then for 2013, but (as you may have seen) 2014 has already kicked off with January in Japan. Here’s hoping you can join us to kick-start the new year with some great J-Lit!
